I will translate that to should have brought a Honda.

That's a completely different beast. A large displacement BMW, made in Germany? Sure. This is a 125cc commuter bike, made in China. We paid $600 for the thing, I don't think I'm going to be losing sleep over putting cheap parts in it.

Gs125 is the sporty (looking) version GN125 is the custom, DR125 is the trail bike.
Kickaha will know for sure if the valves are the same in all models.
but either way they have the measurements on the right.

Not as funny as using aftermarket valves and having them fail in a fraction of the time of OE as has happened to me
Although my usage was a bit more extreme
Yeah try TKRJ, they lasted one meeting comapred to OE lasting 12-14 meetings
All the same going from the mix and match engines I have, currently have DR200 valves in the 125 head

So are the heads the same between them all Kicka? One had closer ratios or was it more gears?

Heads on the 125 seem to be all the same, DR125 is a six speed but the ratios aren't closer
Same principle applies regards of brand, pay your money and take your chances

Is it really the same? Obviously there's going to be a big difference between OEM german made parts and aftermarket chinese made parts for a BMW, but it's not the same thing as the difference between a chinese made OEM part and a chinese made aftermarket part. The chinese made OEM parts obviously aren't that great, they're the reason we're even here right now.

...why are you asking?...it sounds like you know it all...
Moped rider
I don't claim to know it all. Just claiming to know that different brands have different quality standards, and that the chinese made suzuki GNs are shithouse.

Anything built to a price regards of the country of origin will have those problems

Is it not true that modern low end suzuki bikes are built down to a price? If so, why have they gotten gradually shittier over the last 30 years?
